Rhythms of life: the first arrhythmic metronome to raise awareness about heart problems

22 September 2023 - 16: 02

El Marina Health Hospital from Dénia has presented the campaign today "Rhythms of Life" to raise awareness among the population Marina Alta about heart problems, with the first arrhythmic metronome in history. Firstly, the day was presented with a music therapy workshop, performed by the music therapists from the Dénia Hospital Ana Alegre and Isabel Bellver in which they interacted with the attendees to involve them.

Following this, a round table about heart care in all stages of our lives. The panel, moderated by the coordinator of the Heart Area, nurse and musician, Vicente Roig, included doctors José Albors, Head of the Cardiac Surgery Service at the Vinalopó Hospital; Alfonso Valle, Head of the Cardiology Service and Ainhoa ​​Larumbe, Cardiology Nurse and Coordinator of the Heart Failure Program, both from the Dénia Hospital.

The day, inaugurated by the Commissioner of the Department of Health, José Félix Quintero and led by the Director of Hospitalization of Dénia, Dr. Patricia Martín Rico, the “Rhythms of Life” Campaign has been presented, where music is the heart's protagonist. This campaign tries to raise awareness about heart diseases that leave an annual figure, according to the WHO, of more than 17 million deaths, being one of the main causes of death in the world.

For this reason, a singular and unique element has been presented: the first arrhythmic metronome in history. Those in charge of cutting the inaugural ribbon of the metronome have been the President of the Ribera Health Group, Alberto de Rosa and Health Councilor of the Dénia City Council, Rafael Carrió. The entrance to the hospital has been converted into a stage to also host the live musical performance of the Orquestra Simfònica ADDA d'Alcant, which has been divided into different groups and played various pieces in different services of the health centre.

Ribera has promoted the construction of a very special metronome, which swings to the “rhythm” of a sick heart, specifically the heart of Adrián, a patient with arrhythmia, and which is the axis of all the initiatives linked to this awareness action. and health education.

Ribera has worked on this initiative with Maart Agency, responsible for the creative idea, and with Estudio Espadaysantacruz, manufacturer of the personalized arrhythmic metronome. The creative axis of the campaign is based on a key fact: both the heart and the “tempo” of the compositions are measured the same, in beats per minute (beats per minute or BPM). For this reason, this “special” metronome has been manufactured: it is the means that musicians use to measure tempo. In the same way that the metronome sustains the rhythm of music, the heart sustains the rhythm of life.

A campaign for health

The objective of "Rhythms of Life" is to raise awareness about cardiovascular problems to help prevent them. For this reason, the initiatives included in the campaign are open to all health centers, beyond Ribera's own: the exhibition of the singular metronome will be able to travel to different places, and the compositions created by musicians from different origins, to the rhythm of Adrián's heart.
